Bow & Arrow Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2022 Review
Scott Frank started Bow & Arrow in 2010 with the goal of showcasing the terroir of Oregon's Willamette Valley through grapes common in France's Loire Valley, including Pinot Noir. This bottling is a blend of several vineyard sites from across the region, fermented with 15 percent whole cluster inclusion, and aged for a year in barriques. The wine has a subtle, earthy nose and the palate brings brambly berry notes with hints of mushroom. It has a balanced acidity and grippy tannins that make this bottle great for dinner pairings.
